The 26 was re-routed so that vehicles passing Great Homer Street all called at Sir Thomas Street (bar 53), however said services were moved to Queen Square (bar 56/58), and therefore the extra minutes stuck in traffic wasn't worth the effort.
2405,2409 and 2413 were all on the 10B today!
Not sure what's going on at GL at the moment but seen 2754 on 8's whilst 2231 & 2719 are on 10B. 2216 is on 14 and 2557 on 15.
I would've thought the loss of 2670-2675 to Bolton is at least partly responsible, with the replacement Pulsars seeing regular use on the 6 and 7; certainly, I've noticed a lot of Darts on the 10B in recent days.
2672 is on the 18 today so hasn't left for Bolton (yet, at least).
Seen everybody getting shifted off 2405 on the 9 this morning at the stop just before it crosses Queens Drive, they all got shifted on 2575 which was on the 8 immediately in front of it. 2405 obviously had an issue and driver drove it away oos after he moved his passengers.

Also on the 8/9 today was 2574 and 2578, whist 2216 was on the 6/7 with 2718 and 2720.

If I can recollect correctly 2405 is the one with the rough grumbling sounding diff ? Though suppose the age it is there would be no point in buying a new one. Still a good amount of these ALX's running around

More then rough sounding, it's bloody deafening! Absolutely awful bus which is only fit for Barnsley. On another note, the equally as bad 2557 was on the 18 today.

2717 was also on the 18 today, whilst Commanders were on the 6/7, 8/9 and 68.

For the record, 2672 was on the 10B!
